Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If corn (maize) instead of oats
Parallel subheading for kibbled corn maintains structure for other worked cereal grains.
If sufficiently fragmented per sieve
Meeting 95% passage through 2mm (corn) or 1.25mm sieve defines as groats/meal in 1103.
If minimally worked rye grains
Rye not meeting sieve passage for 1102 stays closer to raw grain headings.
